1984 Dark Shadows Festival Program

Professor Kinema (Jim Knusch) attended the Dark Shadows Festival of 1984, with Jonathan Frid in attendance. The professor was a guest speaker, delivering a presentation on 'The Cinema of the Vampire." He was an 11th hour replacement for author Leonard Wolf. The convention and Jim are mentioned in the Dark Shadows chapter (#20) of True Tales of the Unknown, the Uninvited.

Hell, I fondly recall running home from school so I wouldn't miss an episode of DS. I had the Angelique music box (plastic, with a decal for decoration), and wish I still did. Hope the Depp remake doesn't screw up the feeling.
